Well, actually the fifth book was better than the others so far.
I loved how things went by and how the characters, our main four girls had to face them.
But I do not quite got a hint who‘s A this time.
I totally have to read the number six to find that out soon and still ten more books to go.

But I did had some issues with some situations in this book too.
Aria and the artist called Wolfgang,turns out to be her mothers date, because he used a fake name for his online dating and his real name is Xavier. Quite not what I was expecting when the door bell rang and Aria opened and saw her future date (which indeed she almost kissed back at the artist gallery)
And now it’s her moms date?

Sara Shepard, what the f***?!

Still a good series and so far the further you‘re into it the better it gets

Just one more PLL book with rich kids, unnecessary descriptions, subplots that are not really important, and four protagonists unable to understand a single word they hear.
And what's with the adult/teen relationships in these books? It's just ridiculous at this point, and where are the parents?
Not even the plot could save this one.

Slay, this one was so good. I feel like books 5-8 are so good I remember really loving them and this just proved it. I feel like Sara really got into the PLL-verse in this one and sold it and I can’t wait for the next one (I know my favorite couple is coming). 


Crying score: no

The plot and writing are despicable, and the amount of times that the author quotes some stupid brands is comicle. Said that it did wrap me in so it would be hypocritical to give it 2 stars.

I didn’t enjoy this book.

It just felt dragged out and nothing happened. Not only that, but Spencer wasn’t herself. She’s known as the smart one, but she didn’t even realize that she’d been adopted. As soon as she had to leave when they discussed the will, I knew she’d been adopted.
aThis was just a big disappointment.

Wicked, primer libro del segundo arco de esta atrapante serie, se sitúa tan solo unas semanas después del final en Unbelievable donde descubrimos que Mona era A y fue ella quien atormentó a Aria, Emily, Hanna y Spencer por meses. Este libro se enfoca en Ian, el guapetón de Rosewood Day, quien fue llevado a la cárcel como sospechoso de la muerte de Alison DiLaurentis.

Wicked me gustó muchísimo, se nota que las cosas ya no son simples secretitos como "Sé que no te bañaste esta mañana. -A" y eso me hace feliz. Estuvo lleno de suspenso, historias mucho más jugosas y la verdad es que me atrapó de tapa a tapa.

Hanna une fuerzas con su hermanastra Kate para recuperar el control de Rosewood Day. Claro que A no dejará que sea tan sencillo, se encargará de jugar con la mente de Hanna hasta hacerla estallar y destruya todo por lo que ha luchado. Incluyendo su relación con Lucas.
Lo de Aria con Xavier estuvo muy bien, tengo muchas ganas de saber qué pasará con este pervertido más adelante.
Emily e Isaac, estuvo bien esto. Isaac es un personaje que me encantó, super galán pero con los pies a tierra, aw. Pero en general, ¿cuándo será el día en que un libro no se enfoque en las relaciones románticas de Emily? Vamos...
Mi querida Spencer, tus historias son mis favoritas. Tu familia vale hongo y me da rabia :(.

Me encantó el final, me dejó con la boca abierta, no por la escena en sí, si no porque es algo nuevo en estos libros, A se esta volviendo heavy y eso me agrada.

He leído que de aquí en adelante, los libros se vuelven más y más buenos así que no puedo esperar que llegue el turno de leer Killer.
